Struvite From Human Waste?

Hello! I ran across this site while doing some research on soil.

My question is the following:

Is it possible to make struvite from human waste? I've ran a cross the process of making struvite from livestock manure but I wanted to know if that process could be duplicated with human waste instead. Thank you!

CERCLA and EPCRA Reporting Requirements

I am teaching a course in Agriculture Waste Management at South Dakota State University and the 52 students want to know:

1. What is the latest reporting requirements for CERCLA AND EPCRA?
   
2. What size of livestock or poultry operation is required to report?
   
3. How is the report submitted (to whom and how often)?
   
4. What reporting form is to be used?
   
5. What is the best spreadsheet estimator for ammonia and hydrogen sulfide from a livestock or poultry operation?
   

Application of feedlot manure to certified organic farmland

We have a 35 acre tract of farmland that we just got certified. Can I apply feedlot manure to the field from a feedlot that is NOT ORGANIC?

Also can I make compost that will be applied to the field with manure that does not come from an organic operation. Can you recommend any reference material or educational material that would help me learn about the do's and don'ts of organic crop growth and management?

Aerated Static Pile Horse Manure Composting

What are the average carbon or nitrogen content of horse manure and also used/urine-soaked pelleted bedding? With a desired 20:1 up to 40:1 of C:N ratio I would need to know to assure quality composting.

Liquid manure testing equipment for K ( Potassium )

Dear Madam, Dear Sir, We find it somehow difficult to source test equipment which can be used to test Potassium level according methods GB- 11904-89 in liquid manure. We can test Total N and Ammonium Nitrogen, P, PH in our lab in liquid manure but not K and would need this data to have the most important elements tested in our liquid manure as well in our liquid coming out from the biodigestor -would be grateful if you could provide us some reputable suppliers for this test equipment which we will need in our china farms operations to establish nutrient value for liquid manure application to land / crops .

Pig Hoop House Groundwater Management

Hi, my name is Niki Harris and I am with California Heritage Farms in Siskiyou County. We have a pastured hog operation and are moving into an open aired hoop house system, directly on the ground (no concrete slabs), where we will house about 650 pigs in four different hoops (max carrying capacity at any given time) with access to outdoors. We will do this on two different properties that are about 3 miles apart from one another. We will use deep straw bedding and compost the manure.

Given that we are within a mile from a river I would like to write a detailed groundwater management plan to ensure that our operation will not be disturbing river habitat beyond an acceptable measure for California compliance. I have spoken with our river trust Executive Director and NCRS representative and they are supportive of the project.

I am wondering if you have any example groundwater management sample plans that you could share? Or parallel plans. Thank you!
